2023 ASPIRATIONS: DECORUM MUST BE THE WATCHWORD!!
As the pre-election season comes upon us again as a people, our party – the Peoples Democratic Party in Akwa Ibom State, famed for always conducting her affairs with utmost decency, respect for party familial ties, and dialogue wish to remind our members of the need to uphold the time-tested virtue of decorum as they ventilate their respective aspirations.
It is trite that one of the character checks for anyone seeking to serve the people is the ability to sell the objectives and visions of his aspirations to the delegates and electorate with utmost civility. The ability to do this of course also sends a strong message on the kind of leadership or representation the people should expect.
Our Party believes that our State is in a stage of her development where the vice of politically-sponsored blackmail, vitriolic attacks, mudslinging and smear campaigns should not be offered the privilege of mention or a place in our journey towards electing those to lead in 2023.
We therefore urge partymen and women to ensure that their actions and those of their supporters stay with the acceptable path of refinement which the PDP continues to live by.
We trust that the Same God who has been our guide through successive electoral victories, will be by our side as we journey to the 2023 elections.
